    Emotionally beautiful
    It's quite rare of me to watch anime that I can actually count it to my fingers how many anime films I have seen in my life (excluding Ghibli films). This one really just hits. I didn't expect it to be as heartbreaking as it can be. I came fully unprepared watching A Silent Voice and still to this very moment of writing this review, my heart is still beating fast for all the pain and suffering these characters had to endure that were too attached to my own well-being. The fact that you can actually relate to each of these characters and truly understand their flaws is out of this world. This one really has an immersive amount of writing that just works. It takes a great amount of talent, blood, and sweat to be able to produce a movie as beautiful as this. It is a film where you can learn something from. The characters are all uniquely their own; relatable and they all feel real.

    The two protagonists mirror each other's burdens in life- it's like Bergman's Persona that comes from a tortured feeling of guilt, regret, and suffering. It's a story of transformation: a chance to forgive, to grow, mature, and be kinder to people as well as dealing with problems rather than wanting to end your life.
